If he said to his wife, “You are divorced, except for three, except for two”?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : A man said, “You are divorced three times, except for two, except for one.”
The Shaykh : Huh, she is divorced twice, she is divorced twice.
The questioner : According to the Hanbali school?
The Shaykh : Yes, although I do not think that if the exception is more than half of the number, it is nullified and not valid. This is what we tell you, not because we want to tell you, but because questions branch off from it. We would prefer to return to grammar; we do not care about jurisprudence and its principles.
